@@peterhaller2797 Common problem on those. Take off the cover from the mic, and check the solder connections where the cable attaches to the mic head.

@@LiquidGooser Heyhey, yeah I brought it to a family member who is familiar with soldering and circuitry stuff because I am a total dummy for that. He managed to fix it, tho i can only hear the radio on one ear but is if sufficient enough.
Dude! I had no idea you could do this to the walkers! Definitely gonna snag a beofeng radio.I have 3 sets of the walker walkie talkies and they are great for short range, but you add in walls or multiple levels and its pretty spotty. This will be a great upgrade and means Itll work with the Ops arm knock offs im running 10/10 haha Subbed!!
I had another manufacturers Head set.... When I connected a radio or aux cord it disabled the noise cancelation and made it just muffs with a radio. Does this truly allow both to work?
Old video but did you notice your audio level on your razors cut by half by putting in the 3.5mm jack? I'm trying to replicate but the reduce audio is a negative.
I tried doing this with a set of walkers I got but it wouldn't work. I only had a shoulder microphone tho I wonder if that's why I wouldn't work for me
I have a baofeng lapel mic with an audio out jack that appears to be a 3.5 mm. But neither of my auxiliary cords work. Any idea of the type of auxiliary cord? If I insert my aux cords half way I get audio on the headset and mic. But if I insert it all the way I get no audio at all. Thanks
We have had good luck using "Kenwood" style connectors. We have found that the beofeng design does not play well with standard 3.5mm headphone cords (it fits but the connections do not connect properly)
@@OrdoAirsoft I figured out that the baofeng lapel mic 3.5 mm output is mono. And found an adapter. Going through reviews on the adapter I found a guy who used it for the exact same reason. I'll know for sure when I receive it and I'll let you know.
@@OrdoAirsoft turns out the baofeng mics I have were wired wrong from the factory. Actually and easy fix once I figured out what to move where. All work properly now
@@im_Adrian- they're all soldered wrong inside it's been a while since I did it so I don't remember which corrections to make but if I remember correctly I swapped two wires
Do I understand it correct, that you use the mic on t he Baofeng itself for the communication? If so a simple single push to talk cable should also just work instead of this split one - right!?
No, the push to talk button has a mic built in that you can use when you mount it on the front of your plate carrier so you can keep the radio on a pouch/backpack
@@OrdoAirsoft It's the Kenwood plug that works with Baofeng yes? Also, did you get the hard wired one or the one with the quick release plug? The quick release one is twice the price, but I can't tell if that's what allowed you to disconnect the coiled earpiece...
For Beofengs, it's well worth the effort to program them right rather than plugging in numbers by hand. Here's a video on the programming process: th-cam.com/video/MEpBo5lixsw/w-d-xo.html As for the legality of the radios, we can't give legal advice so we would recommend doing research for your area
@@OrdoAirsoft Depending on the model of Baofeng you're using, you can use them legally provided you have an amateur radio operators license, or a GMRS license. GMRS does not require a knowledge test, is only $35/for 10 years, and it covers all the members of your family.
@@AshesWorkshop If you’re in the US and operate on designated ham frequencies, you are required to have a license, no question. Unfortunately many people these days couldn’t care less, will operate unlicensed, and eventually will give the FCC the excuse to commercialize all the frequencies and sell them for business/government use.
@T. Greening the gubmint and businesses already have their own bands. If the FCC cared, I suppose they would do something. Guys using their Baofengs unlicensed is apparently not something this agency is overly concerned with. Unlicensed guys transmitting on amateur bands is not going to "make" the government "do" anything. You seem to view govt/citizens relationship as a cause and effect situation. Newbie, pleez...
Well, sometimes you can get separated if your in the field doing airsoft and you can talk to your buddy from a distance. In real world applications it’s the same thing

Weirdest intro music I’ve ever heard
hahaha
Play on 1.25x you're welcome
You can also use the Baofeng shoulder mics which have a direct 3,5mm output. They're cheap, but quality is a bit of a hit and miss.
I have one like that and audio does not come through it. Maybe i managed to pull a faulty one?

@@Stoney3K thank you very much, i will be checking it out for sure
@@peterhaller2797 hey did that fix it by chance? When I run my shoulder mic it makes my ear pro go silent when receiving

Bro this method is OP
Just buy Baofeng shoulder speaker mic can easily set up the comm. It comes with audio jack output and mic.$9
I had another manufacturers Head set.... When I connected a radio or aux cord it disabled the noise cancelation and made it just muffs with a radio. Does this truly allow both to work?
Yes, with my experience using this setup it amplifies outside noises and you can hear radio transmissions also 👍
great video and thanks for the help!
I did this but it pops so loud on transmission
Do you have any links for the adapter? Cant find a website anywhere
We got ours on this website that sells "secret service" type earpieces: earhero.com/store/
Don’t you have to have a license for the ham radios?
Lol

We did not have that issue.

I can't get it to work either

Perfect.
Have you tried the CovertArms 3.5mm system?
We haven't tried that system yet.
where can i get this exact set up?
Get to it already
Which model of tactical ear gadgets?
It depends on your radio, but here is the one we used: earhero.com/product/one-wire-coiled-tube-kit-lapel-microphone/

@@tomyork8815 Yes, the kenwood plug works with most beofengs (we have the UV-5R). We did not get the quick release version
@@tomyork8815 thank you for asking this, I was hoping to find this in the comments lol
Edit- about the Kenwood plug
How do I set up the same frequency for my team in airsoft? And can I get a link to those radios plz? I also heard baofengs are illegal in the U.S

look into getting a HAM radio license. U might need one to legally use radios in your area

149 bucks for an earpiece. Are you nuts?
Use a phone holder I hate it when guys try and do a review holding a phone to make a video smh 🤦🏽
Why does one need, ear protection when playing airsoft? Lol
They use blank rounds in real ARs at larger events. No hearing protection means potentially losing your hearing over time
U never had a pyro grenade land at ur feet in a stairwell and it shows
I still don’t understand why you need to have comms standing next to each other at a shooting range…but sure.
Well, sometimes you can get separated if your in the field doing airsoft and you can talk to your buddy from a distance. In real world applications it’s the same thing
I mean they even use ear protection... for AIRSOFT
Great way to practice your comms
you don’t have to understand.. it’s okay
Team tactics Boi, your behind the curve
$50 adapter is not cheap.
